The Sunday Standard Best Bankers' Awards

ThinkEdu Conclave

The New Indian Express believes that education is the key to national human resources development and that, as an intelligent society, we must create a holistic and high-quality education system for our children and youth.

Devi Awards

The New Indian Express believes that strong, independent women are the backbone of a nation. We have decided to act on our belief by organising a definitive event called Devi, which recognises and awards 20 exceptional women who display dynamism and innovation in their work.

Odisha Literary Festival

Sur Sangam

With the The New Indian Express publications religiously mapping cultural trends and events, it's no surprise that EventXpress (the events wing of TNIE) specializes in putting together events that bring India's top musicians and singers to the people, under the Sur Sangam umbrella.

TNIE Goal

The New Indian Express launched TNIE GOAL, an inter-college football tournament in Kerala in 2012. The idea behind this sports event is to revive the interest in football, especially among the youth and help discover talented sportsmen who could be trained and promoted to play at the national level.
